WIP Quick Paint Update

Quick WIP photos of some recent painting.
First up is the Skragg c23 ogre miniature. Orlygg had a post about plate
mail where he lamented about its rather boring qualities. It inspired me to try something different. I’ve been bitten by a battleship grey bug as
of late. Not sure why, maybe it was that
grey Hellcat Dodge Challenger I drooled over the last time I got an oil change on my
Jeep. Whatever the reason I saw this as
an opportunity to use the color and try a different approach to the plate mail
on this guy. The easy path would have
been to just drybrush some metallic paints on him when he was primed up in
black. Here is where I’m at so far.

Not too bad as I avoid breaking my arm while
patting myself on the back! Still have some metal work to do and a few odd detail items.

Next up is an old
Rogue Trader era Inquisitor in power armor.
I have no idea why I bought this figure, maybe I was sleep shopping on
eBay. I figured I had him might as well
put paint to it and here are the results.

About Me

I'm a late 40's gamer that grew up in the golden age of miniatures and RPGs in the 80's. I cut my teeth on the likes of TSR's 2nd edition D&D and AD&D, SJG's pocket editions of OGRE and Car Wars and the glorious 3rd edition of Warhammer Fantasy Battle and Rogue Trader from GWS. Long live the games and hair metal of the 80's!
